Synopsis

Bollywood romance. Colonel Saab (Nasir Hussain) is a doctor in a psychiatric hospital in India. His particular interest is in treating patients with acute mania, which he believes is caused by the male child's longing for the unconditional love he gets from his mother, and that once separated from her, he searches for this love in other women. His hospital nurse, Radha (Waheeda Rehman), had successfully treated one such patient, and now they have another one by the name of Arun Choudhury (Rajesh Khanna). A reluctant Radha is asked to act as his caring mother-like nurse, but it isn't long before she has become deeply attached to him...
